Re: Lambretta Carb Set-ups.....

Just checking the numbers on my TMX27 carb (Imola 186) that I posted on here in 2009. I see posts virtually every day on Faecebook about jetting PHBH carbs and the hundreds (if not thousands) of variations you can come up with between needle, slide and atomiser. Never had those issues with my Mikuni...

I popped in to see if it's still buoyant or not as I've been kicked off Faecebook. Sadly not by the look of things.

Re: SIP in the UK & Black Friday

I realise that it's a very old thread but people still buy from German shops and complain about getting "stung" with various charges including import duty and VAT when the goods arrive in the UK. There's a cut off point which I think is €135, anything below and you pay German taxes etc whe...

Engine build spreadsheet

Has anyone got a Lambretta engine build spreadsheet that they can post or send me or know where there is one before I make my own. I invariably miss parts out when trying to do it myself.
There was a build sheet on here a few years ago but it may not have been in a spreadsheet form.

Re: Mikuni TMX Powerjet

The idea is supposed to me that main jet should be 75% and power jet 25%. So if you're using a 300 main with power blocked off, then you should be running something like 225 main with 75 power. On my 225 Mugello with LTH reed and TMX27 I erred on the cautious side and went 260 main with 50 power jet...

Re: Michelin S83 tyre loading ratings

They're currently only available in 59J. 59 denotes the weight load rating of 245kg. J is the speed rating which is 62mph. I did read recently that someone removed them as they were marked as tube type but they're currently only available in tubeless, so if they've previously been available in tube ...

BGM one is 3mm, LTH is 3mm, QR2 is 3mm, I can only find the MB one at 2.5mm, but either way I don't see what the "trouble" might be.

Re: sil 2 hole silent block

Fit one at BST and the other at GMT. That would explain the extra hour.
